Sounds like the setup you got was off an 85 or an 86, yep will work a-ok.
Even if the angles were different, you could grind the holes out to match.
One thing to watch is if the setup is out of an 85 and you have the 85 computer, it may be a wise idea to upgrade to the later computer with the AJUN or ARAP code. If you go with the ARAP you have to diable VATS. The 86 code could be buggy and the piggyback MAF setup of the 85 is a real PIA if it ever fails.
